Applies to AudiTTs: with main beam assist
The main beam assist automatically switches the main beam headlights on or off depending on the surrounding light conditions.

A camera (located in the mounting for the interior mirror) detects light sources from other road users. The main beams are activated or deactivated automatically depending on the position of AudiTTs on either side of the road, on the road speed, and on other traffic and ambient conditions.
On AudiTTs with matrix LED headlights, individual segments of the main beam are activated or deactivated. The relevant sector in front of the AudiTT is masked, while the surrounding areas remain lit. The ambient surroundings are thus illuminated optimally without dazzling other road users.

The driver must always ensure that the headlights are used when required, and may have to switch them on or off manually, e.g. when the light conditions or visibility are poor. In the following situations manual intervention may be necessary:
- Hazardous weather conditions such as fog, heavy rain and snow or water splashes
- Roads on which oncoming traffic is partially concealed (e.g. on motorways)
- Indiscernible road users (e.g. cyclists with insufficient lighting or AudiTTs with dirty rear lights)
- Tight corners, steep hill crests or valleys
- Poorly lit towns
- Highly reflective objects, such as road signs
- Windscreen misted up, dirty, frosted or covered by stickers in front of the sensor
